Our birth cards from Kartenmacherei

Shortly after our son was born in October we did a photo shooting to keep this special moment and can look back at it whenever we want to. We loved those photos so much that we also wanted to use some of them for our birth cards that we wanted to send out to close friends and family to let them know about our second wonder. The same as our Christmas cards before we ordered these ones at the Kartenmacherei.

We liked the fact that you can choose the design you want and then change it to your needs. We used the design “Farbenpracht” in a taupe/ blue color. The outside front was meant for our main actor here, our son, and we simply added his name (I had to blur it out on the photos as we are keeping the names of our children for us). For the first inside page we chose a photo from the two siblings to show how happy our daughter was about the arrival of her little brother. The page next to it we added a little note saying “Hello world, here is L” and underneath date and time of birth, how much he was weighing and how tall he was. In addition a little sentence saying:

Our little bundle of joy has arrived!Jochen, Doris and big sister C are ecstatic to welcome little L to the world.

Last but not least we added our address to the back so that people have it straight away if they want to send a little card back. In addition we ordered envelopes and stickers with our address for the outside of the envelopes. That way we didn´t have to write them by hand on every single card. We had to send several cards as my husband has a big family and in saying big I mean huge.

I do love the fact that you can order everything out of one hand. So no need to run around to get every single piece itself. Quality of the cards itself and the prints are very good and really worth ordering. We are more than happy with the result. For the next events we will order at the Kartenmacherei again, in our case it will be birthday of our daughter and/or baptism. We will see but my eye got already caught on those lovely, small photo boxes. They could be really cute as a little thank you being part of our baptism and a cute memory the same time.
